We've also voted to save jobs from policies that hurt our economic growth by passing a budget that will balance in 10 years and repealing the President's health care law that is already costing jobs. In addition, we've worked to expand opportunities for all Americans by passing legislation that allows for a better trained workforce in removing barriers to help balance the needs of family time and work. Our focus is on solutions--not blame and excuses--to help encourage a healthy and prosperous economy, to create jobs, and to expand opportunities for all Americans. ____________________
